Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Massive Stars
Conference Proceeding
Meynet, G., Maeder, A., Choplin, A., Takahashi, K., Ekström, S., Hirschi, R., …Eggenberger, P. (2017). Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Massive Stars. . https://doi.org/10.7566/jpscp.14.010401

Massive stars are rapid nuclear reactors that play a key role in injecting new synthesized elements in the interstellar medium. Depending on the strengths of the stellar winds on the efficiency of mixing processes, the masses and the chemical composi... Read More about Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Massive Stars.

Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars
Journal Article
Choplin, A., Meynet, G., Maeder, A., Hirschi, R., Ekström, S., & Chiappini, C. (2017). Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars. JPS Conference Proceedings, https://doi.org/10.7566/jpscp.14.020202

CEMP-no stars (Carbon-Enhanced metal-poor stars with no or few s- or r-elements) are long-lived low mass stars presenting a very low iron content and overabundances of carbon relatively to the sun. Their chemically peculiar abundance pattern could be... Read More about Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars.

Production Uncertainties of p-Nuclei in the γ-Process in Massive Stars Using a Monte Carlo Approach
Conference Proceeding
Rauscher, T., Nishimura, N., Hirschi, R., Cescutti, G., Murphy, A. S. J., & Heger, A. (2017). Production Uncertainties of p-Nuclei in the γ-Process in Massive Stars Using a Monte Carlo Approach. In Proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Nuclei in the Cosmos (NIC2016). https://doi.org/10.7566/jpscp.14.010509

Proton-rich nuclei, the so-called p-nuclei, are made in photodisintegration processes in outer shells of massive stars in the course of the final supernova explosion. Nuclear uncertainties in the production of these nuclei have been quantified in a M...

The Role of AGB Stars Feedback in Sustaining Galaxy Evolution
Journal Article
Javadi, A., Van Loon, J., & Khosroshahi, H. The Role of AGB Stars Feedback in Sustaining Galaxy Evolution. arXiv, https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.1610.00254

We have conducted a near-infrared monitoring campaign at the UK InfraRed Telescope, of the Local Group spiral galaxy M33. The main aim was to identify stars in the very final stage of their evolution, and for which the luminosity is more directly rel...

Forensic Geophysical Survey Report at Cannock Chase, Staffordshire, UK
Report
Pringle, J. . K., Cooper, N., & Heaton, V. (2017). Forensic Geophysical Survey Report at Cannock Chase, Staffordshire, UK. Staffordshire Police Service

A multi-geophysical survey was undertaken on a specified survey area. Once surface metallic clutter had been identified with a metal detector and removed (recovered metal bolt being of interest), EM, magnetic and GPR surveys were conducted. Results s...

The curious case of Betelgeuse
Conference Proceeding
van Loon, J. T. (2023). The curious case of Betelgeuse. In The Sixteenth Marcel Grossmann Meeting On Recent Developments in Theoretical and Experimental General Relativity, Astrophysics, and Relativistic Field Theories (In 4 Volumes). https://doi.org/10.1142/9789811269776_0289

Betelgeuse is the nearest red supergiant, one of the brightest stars in our sky, and statistically speaking it would be expected to be “typical”. Yet it exhibits many features that seem “curious”, to say the least. For instance it has a high proper m... Read More about The curious case of Betelgeuse.
